Week 148 Recipe
These Muffins are so good, you’ll make them time and time again.
PEAR SPICE SPELT MUFFINS
Ingredients
- 2 2/3 cups spelt flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 pinch nutmeg
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cups buttermilk
- 2/3 cups packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 bartlett pears peeled cored and diced (about 1-1/2 cups)
Streusel:
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons spelt flour
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Instructions
Streusel: In small bowl, whisk brown sugar with flour; drizzle in oil. With fingers, rub together until moistened and slightly crumbly; set aside.
- In large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, salt and nutmeg.
- Whisk together eggs, buttermilk, brown sugar and oil; pour over flour mixture, stirring just until a few streaks of flour remain. Stir in pears just until combined. Spoon into greased or paper-lined muffin cups. Sprinkle with streusel.
- Bake in 350F (180C) oven until tops are firm to the touch, about 25 minutes. Let cool in pan on rack for 5 minutes; transfer to rack and let cool completely. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight container for up to 3 days. Or individually wrap in plastic wrap and freeze in airtight container for up to 2 weeks.)
